CANNELLINI BEAN ANTIPASTO WITH SHRIMP: ANTIPASTO DI CANNELLINI

Steps:

• In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon olive oil and the garlic over medium-high heat. When the oil is hot but not smoking, add the shrimp and cook, stirring frequently, until they turn pink, about 4 minutes.
• Remove the shrimp from the pan, reserving the garlic and oil. Chop the shrimp into pieces slightly larger than the beans. Toss the shrimp with the beans, adding the reserved oil and garlic.
• In a serving bowl, toss the shrimp and beans with the remaining olive oil and the red onions. Strip the rosemary leaves from the stems and add to the beans. Toss, then add the vinegar and season with salt and pepper. Toss again, before adding the basil. Just before serving, toss the beans once more and adjust seasoning. Add more oil, salt, pepper, and balsamic vinegar, as desired.

• NOTE- You might want to add less reserved maranide to taste, since the marinade dominates the taste of this dish. As an alternative you can substitute two 13.75 oz cans (non- marinaded) artichoke hearts and then add more spices to taste. Using large shrimp is best, since it is one of the main ingredients. Finally, use lemon wedges and squeeze on individual portions.

• Something sure has changed with Recipe Zaar! When trying to put the ingredients in it was a big pain in the butt for the sizes. I've converted the grams to ounces but I didn't have everything in my cupboard to actually look at so I guessed. But most cans come pretty standard, and the "Frozen Shrimp" is a large bag -- it wouldn't let me put just "large.".
